Are you looking for a high-quality and long-lasting solution for missing teeth?
Dental implants provide a natural-looking and attractive smile that can restore your confidence and let you start enjoying life again.
38th Street Dental in Austin, TX, uses high-tech tools and high-end materials to create the stunning smiles our patients deserve.
What Is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed in the jawbone, where it mimics a natural tooth root. Dr. Mike Meek and Dr. David J. Tasch at our Austin, TX, dental office use implants from Nobel Biocare®, a leader in the development of implants. For a full tooth restoration, you will need a dental implant, a connector piece called an abutment, and a crown, bridge, or denture to replace the visible portion of your missing teeth. Implants can be used alone or in groups to support a variety of restorations that look like your natural teeth.
Fill the Gaps in Your Smile with Dental Implants
If you have a single missing tooth, your dentist will typically recommend a dental implant and crown to restore your smile. This option is more conservative than a traditional dental bridge, which requires filing down the teeth on each side of the tooth gap. We have helped many patients rebuild their smiles and improve their quality of life through implants.
How Many Teeth Are You Missing? We Have a Custom Solution
Missing One Tooth?
When a single tooth is missing, one dental implant can be used to hold a crown (artificial tooth), which will beautifully restore your smile and give you a strong, functioning bite.
Missing a Row of Teeth?
If you are missing a row of teeth, a bridge supported by implants instead of natural teeth is an ideal solution. By using implants, you can avoid altering healthy teeth to restore your smile.
Missing All Teeth?
Dental implants can securely hold an entire denture in place. These dentures will never slip out of place and the dental implants can help stop deterioration of the jawbone.
